Eso es lo que se habla en la lista de correo de desarrollo de PHP, que opinan al respecto?¿ esto deteriorara el PHP o lo mejorara?¿ PHP is now a Microsoft Partner
Issued on: April 1, 2003
Software: PHP
Platforms: All
The PHP Group has is proud to announce that we are now a partner of
Microsoft Corporation.
Description
After many hours of talking with people from Microsoft, we came up with
an agreement, which will make us a partner with them. This will have many
benefits for both the users and the developers.
Impact
PHP will be included in the next upcoming release of their operating system,
both as CLI and as CGI and ISAPI for IIS. Microsoft have released their source code to IIS to some of our developement team so we will be able to
tightly integrated PHP with their webserver.
Except that, this will lead to many improvements in PHP. Microsoft have
agreed to hire our top 5 developers plus an extra 10 that only will work
with the developement of PHP in Windows and UNIX environment.
They have also agreed to host all of our websites (.php.net) on new
highend servers within a month.
The downside is that we will change our license to be more restrictive,
but it will still be opensource. Microsoft, however, will have to accept
every single commit before they get into our CVS, so we will also change
the commitment system in a way that it will first go to a Microsoft
representant that will validate the patch and then apply it if it gets
accepted.
Credits
The PHP Group would like to thank Microsoft Corporation and their staff
for being excellent to work with and make buisness with.
